Audiofictions - The Nomination Chamber

~NOMINATE A FICTION~

Welcome to the Audiofictions Nomination Chamber! Here, you may nominate a fiction you want to hear on Audiofictions. Before posting your nomination, please check through this thread, as well as the Audiofictions Library, to ensure that you do not post a fiction which has already been read or nominated. DO NOT POST REPEAT NOMINATIONS. We look at every nomination - posting repeats does not grant the nomination extra attention or a better chance of being read. If your nomination has been deleted, it has either been selected to be read, has been read, or has been deemed invalid when judged against the below criteria.

A few rules and tips for nominations:

We do not read incomplete fictions

We do not read song fictions unless the song is in public domain, or unless we get the author's approval to remove the lyrics from the fiction

Longer fictions (10+ chapters) are less likely to be read, but can still be nominated

One-shots are greatly valued and always welcome

Please avoid using excessive HTML coding in your nomination (such as colors and font style). It will not help attract extra attention to your nomination; don't worry, we look at every single one

Please use the following format for nominating the fiction you wish to be read:

Name: OliveOil_Med/MollyTitle:Once There Was A Darkness: Year OneAuthor: C_A_CampbellCategory: General FicsWarnings: Abuse, Alternate Universe, Character Death, DH Spoilers, ViolenceRatings: 3rd-5th YearsChaptered/One-Shot: Chaptered (17)Summary:Twelve years ago, one man's life was changed forever by three simple words: “Severus, I'm pregnant.” Now, twelve years later, a girl will embark on the journey of a lifetime. But life at Hogwarts for a first year is far from simple, especially not when she's in the same year as Harry Potter. She will face enemies, choices and danger, while struggling to deal with her past's dark secrets that, after all these years, still threatens to destroy her. One girl's journey. One man's desperate search. One last chance for Severus Snape to find the daughter he lost. Link:Once There Was A Darkness: Year OneWhy This Fiction Should be Chosen: The characters in this story are amazing, but I still cannot picture their voices. I would love to hear them interperated.

Name: luinrina/BineTitle:Recolitus OptimusAuthor: megan_lupinCategory: 3rd-5th YearsWarnings: NoneRatings: Marauder EraChaptered/One-Shot: Chapters (2)Summary:Who would have thought that a sleepless night would spawn an adventure that includes Dark magic, giants, Diagon Alley, secret societies, and ancient prophecies? Certainly not Sirius Black.Link:Recolitus OptimusWhy This Fiction Should be Chosen: This is such a wonderful mystery story, and Megan included so many original ideas and thus created something very special. It would be so interesting to listen to it rather than only read it. Also, Megan has included a kind of prophecy in this story, and I would love to hear how a prophecy sounds like spoken.

Name: luinrina/BineTitle:Adoris IntegareAuthor: megan_lupinCategory: General FicsWarnings: Substance AbuseRatings: 3rd-5th yearsChaptered/One-Shot: Chaptered (3)Summary:Nightmares created another sleepless night for Sirius Black, but who would have thought that the night would include the meeting of old friends, trying to decipher cryptic poems, and travelling to centuries in the past to supposedly complete an as-of-yet unknown task?Link:Adoris IntegareWhy This Fiction Should be Chosen: This is the sequel to Recolitus Optimus, and it is as interesting, gripping and mysterious as the first one. It has another prophecy as well.

Name: Ginney Weasley Potter/Pooja Title:Harry Potter and the Darkest HourAuthor: StormyCategory: Dark/Angsty FicsWarnings: NoneRatings: 3rd-5th YearsChaptered/One-Shot: Chaptered (20)Summary:Harry is entering his 6th year at Hogwarts. NEWT classes, Quidditch and a new DADA teacher all add up to a seemingly normal year. But what is Voldemort up to now? Where are his Death Eaters? Tortures and killings have started, but how much of it is all just a decoy in the great scheme of things? This time, Harry must leave the comfort of his friends and face his darkest fear.Link:Harry Potter and the Darkest HourWhy This Fiction Should be Chosen: This is a very old fic, mind, and it's pre-HBP. But it's still readable and wonderful. It's beautifully written and the plot is well built and perfect. The characterisation is pretty strond too, though Harry is slightly wobbly at places, but overall it's one of the best-written fics that I've read.

Name: harry4lif/AlyssaTitle:Once There Was A Darkness: Year OneAuthor: C_A_CampbellCategory: General FicsWarnings: Abuse, Alternate Universe, Character Death, DH Spoilers, ViolenceRatings: 3rd-5th YearsChaptered/One-Shot: Chaptered (17)Summary:Twelve years ago, one man's life was changed forever by three simple words: “Severus, I'm pregnant.” Now, twelve years later, a girl will embark on the journey of a lifetime.

One man's desperate search. One last chance for Severus Snape to find the daughter he lost. Link:Once There Was A Darkness: Year OneWhy This Fiction Should be Chosen: Honestly, I love this fic. It's one of the best that I've read in a long time. I personally know the author, she's a Claw, and when I started reading it, I didn't even know who she is. But Chante has managed to spin a web that's so complicated, but so intriguing. I think alot of people on this site love this fic and that it would be absolutely amazing if it was read aloud.

Name: PadfootnPeevesTitle:Uncle Fred Calls Him DickAuthor: MagEdCategory: Post-HogwartsWarnings: Book 7 DisregardedRatings: 6th-7th YearsChaptered/One-Shot: Chaptered (13)Summary:Harry defeated Voldemort. Harry married Ginny. Harry and Ginny had five children. Harry disappeared. My name is Lily Potter, and this is the story of what happened when my father returned after six years missing to find my mother about to re-marry. This is the story of myself, my crazy family, and most of all, this is the story of my parents and the man who tried to come between them.Link:Uncle Fred Calls Him DickWhy This Fiction Should be Chosen: Well, first it's the title that draws you in. Then it's the mysterious summary - you're filled with questions that you want answered. Then you start reading... and you're sucked into a marvelous fic with cliffies, plot twists, romance, and the love of the Weasley family. Lily Potter, MagEd's OC, tells the story with good humor and the perfect amount of emotion. You can really relate to the story, and never want to stop reading it. The fic also has a wonderful Harry, which, surprisingly, not a lot of fics do. It's one of the most original Post-Hogwarts fics around, with a great ending that won't leave you disappointed.

Name: Natasha Johnson/JadeTitle:AnticlimaxAuthor: NoldoCategory: General FicsWarnings: NoneRatings: 1st-2nd YearsChaptered/One-Shot: One-ShotSummary:Padma Patil. India, England, mispronunciation, wartime, solitude, et cetera. Link:AnticlimaxWhy This Fiction Should be Chosen: It's a very different story from what one usually sees among fan fiction. It's written in a very childlike tone of voice, but the ideas that come across are very complex. And it ends perfectly.

Name: booklover44/SarahLynTitle:Alexandra Quick and the Thorn CircleAuthor: InverarityCategory: General FicsWarnings: Character Death, ViolenceRatings: 1st-2nd YearsChaptered/One-Shot: Chaptered (29)Summary: The first book in the Alexandra Quick series. The war against Voldemort never reached America, but all is not well there. When 11-year-old Alexandra Quick learns she is a witch, she is plunged into a world of prejudices, intrigue, and danger. Who wants Alexandra dead, and why?Link:Alexandra Quick and the Thorn CircleWhy This Fiction Should be Chosen: This story is canon-compliant with the Harry Potter universe, but the characters and settings are all original. Also, Inverarity's writing grabs the reader by the throat and drags them into her world from the start. Though this is not specifically in Potterverse, this story is a wonderful specimen of fanfiction. And on top of that, it won Best General Story in the QSQ awards this year!

Name: Russia SnowTitle:A Tale of Two MatchmakersAuthor: KerichiCategory: Draco/GinnyWarnings: Character Death, Mild Profanity, Sexual Situations, Substance Abuse, ViolenceRatings: 6th-7th YearsChaptered/One-Shot: Chaptered (52)Summary:Romance for three couples when Blaise and Luna use Shakespearean styled matchmaking to hook up Ginny and Draco. There's Much Ado about...something!Link:A Tale of Two MatchmakersWhy This Fiction Should be Chosen: It may be very long...But it is the best fanfiction I have ever read. Kerichi captures every character she writes about so well, I read it every night for about a month, and many times wished I had it on CD and on my iPod!
